“.. . patient in affliction. . .”
“Be joyful in hope,
patient in affliction,
faithful in prayer.”
Romans 12;12 (NIV)
When we face difficulties in our lives, it is human nature to get anxious and up tight as we try to go through the trials. They come in many forms-unemployment, illness, financial woes, relational issues, and anything that causes interpersonal misunderstanding.
We have to realize we don’t go through these circumstances alone. We can relax because God through Jesus Christ guides us through the deep valleys we have to traverse. Because we have Jesus, we CAN relax and deal with the issues we face and deal with things that vex us.
